Thailand's Miracle Cave Rescue


The extraordinary inside story of the rescue of a young Thai football team from Tham Luang cave in Thailand.


It was supposed to be a day trip - 12 young boys and their football coach exploring the rugged mountains of northern Thailand and the Tham Luang cave. But instead, they disappeared.
Tham Luang is a 10-kilometre long limestone cave system with deep recesses and narrow passageways. Most of the year, it's relatively dry. But when the monsoon comes, it quickly fills with water, making the caves impossible to enter. Or to leave.
Within 24 hours of the boys going missing, a search operation was under way. The boys' bikes and backpacks were found near the entrance to the cave. Distraught family members gathered.
